The American Baptist Churches of New Jersey is launching a new initiative: “Communities in Action.” This is a collaboration between ABCNJ’s current New Church Development and Public Mission Committees. This partnership aspires to facilitate Christian leaders in navigating the present post-Christian pluralistic society, where injustice and inequity continue to pervade while supporting one another in discovering ways to respond with love and courage. These events, activities, and resources seek to inspire, empower, and support congregations and faith groups in the work towards justice and human rights to proclaim the gospel of Jesus Christ and be peacemakers in our world.

As we enter Holy Week, we do so with hope! In the midst of the hopelessness and despair that we may have encountered and experienced, especially throughout these past two years, we are assured of the hope in us by the resurrection of Christ! Our hope is not found in our strength, goodness, or abilities but the blessed hope of Christ. "Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus! In his great mercy he has given us new birth into a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead, and into an inheritance that can never perish, spoil or fade." 1 Peter 3:4
